So hypothetically, you find yourself being chased by a helicopter

[scumdog]

Rather boring video. But for 10 minutes the bike wasn't losing the chopper.

A couple of screamin' obvious salient points.


The bike HAS to follow the curve of the bend while the chopper cuts across them

ANd the bike has its top speed dictated by traffic volume.

AND it was obvious THAT rider has not read this thread!

Scoot out to the airport, restricted airspace, chopper will be told to fuck off, of course you have to have a good hiding place out there.

I very much doubt that. Tower is generally very accommodating of VFR traffic, and the Police would be given priority. If they'll let me in for flight training, they'd let a Police chopper in no worries!

Christ is this thread still going.

Decided that if it comes to it I'm stripping naked and going for a swim (backstroke) in the nearest body of water.

Might not get away but it would make for a cool ep of Police 10/7 (specially with the copter cam).

What a stupid thread. Get a life.

If stupidity ruled threads off KB there wouldn't be much to read.

bike wasn't a huyobusa with nos, probably not sitting at 300km/ph either

No helicopters in the good ole days.

Some time during 1981 one of my step brothers and a mate were asked to leave a Ponsonby party due to being to drunk,loud,uncouth and having to much fun.

The trouble is they were asked by a hired coconut security guard flunky who wasn't very polite so Bro' took offence an knocked the cunt out.

They then decided that maybe they should leave after all an made to do just that,but the coconuts off sider had blocked the drive way with his little Suzuki jeep type thing,,Bro' took offence again and hit it hard pushing it out of the way with his HQ.

No worries,time to go home anyway,,,but then a police car full of the obvious suddenly appeared an they also tried to stop bro' an mate leaving.

All a bit odd because the whole thing started by some snobby suits wanting them to fuck off,,an now every cunt was trying to stop them,,,,people make no sence at times.

So bro' boots it an heads for the bridge down Ponsonby rd,down through point Eren an up the bridge doing the ton while the coppers try to keep up an collect a couple of their mates at the same time.

The coppers tried to pass the bro' heading up the bridge but he swerved over both center lanes just to let them know he doesn't approve,so they quit that shit an go back to playing baby ducks.

Comes to the Toll gates an their all down,,,no worries again,,hit the gate at the ton an it just vanishes,,,,then lands on one of the camp followers.

Up Onewa rd still traveling fairly well an with a few more fans from the Takapuna branch.

Down Makoia rd to the wharf, out the door a over the edge,,,the mate couldn't swim so hung around for a yarn with the coppers.

He had some good bruisers when I saw him a couple of days later.
Must of been a good yarn that one

Mean while bro' who weighs around 150kg "most of it fat" and swims like a fat fish,,,floats out towards Northcote point.

The Diodar was called out an came very close a couple of times but the bro' just kept low an finally made it to the point.

Only in his undies at this stage but he heads out to Bro Ronnie's place at the top of Onewa rd.

He reckoned he just ducked behind a bush every time a car came by but it was 2-3am on a mid week morning in 81 so there was fuck all traffic about anyway,,,,just a few cop cars really.

He gets to Rons place an scares the crap out of Rons mrs by tapping on the bed room window in his undies,,,,big white boy,,big fat white boy,,in his undies at 3am.

Fuck knows what was wrong with knockin' on the front door

Next day I'm listening to Hauraki news during Smoko an their reporting some clown has assaulted police,security guard,toll gate,cop cars,an then jumped in the tide an gone missing,,,police are hoping to find a body,,,really hoping.

At work we laugh an make the usual witty comments about dumb fucks who jump in the tide,,,then the phone rings.

Hey bro' can ya' lend me some cash to get to Auzzie ?

How many 'busas on the bottle would last any time at a constant 300kph

(Like they need 'the bottle' to get to 300kph anyway??)

First thing Id be doing is asking what the F$%$ a chopper is doing over a racetrack whilst a race was in progress.
If I was stupid enough to try to run I'd do it for the 5 minutes I have a shit show of outrunning the I cars and their radios. After that Mehh not much show

[rastuscat]

Back in the day, if I was being followed by Eagle, I'd call them on Channel 1, and tell them I was in pursuit of a black Triumph, 2 up, no helmets.

Never did catch that bastard...........

I would first consider firing my EMP to take out the electrics.

If I didn't want immediate failure to put the pilot and passengers at risk, I might consider launching the 30 foot wire rope to tangle the rotor and give them chance to bail.

Failing that, the 1giga-lumen torch with self targetting (into the pilot's eyes) would blind and allow a getaway.

Failing that, I would ride to the beehive. No one in their right mind would choose to enter that place

Sometimes at Ruapuna I pretend I'm racing the aircraft that fly over.
